This seemingly minor feature is a big deal for app developers that work on both web apps and mobile apps. We develop a content library for the education market, and one of the most frequent questions we get is, "How can I view the mobile ve

The entire premise of his title is dead wrong. "Why Millionaires Don't Have Great Cars" is a failed assumption. The zip code across the river from me (on the southeast coast of Florida) has the highest concentration of ex-CEOs in the nation

If you're eventually going to move to something like Git or Hg, you really ought to skip SVN all together. The concepts you learn in SVN will make Git or Hg seem counter intuitive, and the Git / Hg model is a better way to work once you sta

Once upon a time, there used to be these books that contained everyone's phone number. They called them the "White Pages". Oh the humanity!

Or maybe someone at ATT realized that their ETF was almost half as much as Verizon's and adjusted it accordingly. Also, I think it would be fair to speculate that as your "average consumer" starts buying more smartphones, carriers will see

I'm not considering leaving. Every day, we post things on the internet that are completely within public view. I simply don't post things that I don't want strangers to see. To me, Facebook embodies the opposite of privacy. It's a site for

Until there are a large number of inexpensive VP8 hardware decoders in the market and deployed in devices, H.264 isn't going anywhere. The large number of H.264 decoders in the wild is akin to the large Flash player install base. The key di

My psych 101 teacher actually put this on the study guide for our final. Q: What is IQ? A: A score on a test. Grammar shortcomings aside, it was one of the most fun and interesting college courses I took.

Nice strawman. He never said NeXT was irrelevant. He said, "Regardless of their market impact (which in the cases of Lisa and NeXT were disappointing), all four were remarkable artistic achievements." The key words being "market impact". In

Looks a bit like PivotalTracker, which we've been extremely happy with. Might have to give this a go.

I bootstrapped my start-up using a three step process: 1) Spent less than I made at my "job" so I could save up a few months of a cash-buffer 2) Start my own simple business with a bulletproof business plan (ultra-low overhead, high-margin,

I know how you feel, and you should still be backing this horse. The better the iPad does, the more likely it is that other manufacturers will create a touch-based tablet. Android is probably the best hope for a geek-friendly touch-tablet i

I wasn't going to buy an iPad either. I'm a gadget geek, so I had all the same feelings about the iPad that are outlined in the article. "It's just a big iPhone," I thought. And I already had an iPhone, so why bother? Then release date went

I'm sure there are 100 other gaming start-ups salivating at the opportunity to take Zynga's place as a tightly integrated gaming platform at Facebook. Not that I think this would be bad for Facebook -- I blocked all of Zynga's apps a long t

Legal action only makes sense when there is some substantial amount of money on the line. Only punters waste their time suing someone over the theft of a proposal. If the proposal contained so much work that it could lead to lawsuit, the au

I guess this is fair turn about. I've read plenty of stories/articles from managers and founders about how difficult employees are. Living most of my professional life in the role of manager has taught me a lot, but for my part, I'll never
